4.3 ADJUSTING FIBER HOLDER

This section describes how to adjust the height of the fiber holder. This adjustment is done when mounting the holding jig onto the polishing unit. Refer to sections 4.4 and 4.5.

 

 

Step 1

Hang the looped fibers (which

 

 

 

have been tied into two

 

 

 

bundles) on the spool at the

 

 

 

end of the fiber holder (at the

 

 

 

lowest position).

 

 

Step 2

Mount the holding jig onto the

 

 

 

polishing unit as described in

 

 

 

steps 4 and 5 of sections 4.4

 

 

 

and 4.5.

Step 3

Loosen the clamping knob for

 

 

 

the fiber holder and slide the

 

 

 

fiber holder up so that the

 

 

 

fibers will not interfere with the

 

 

 

polishing.

NOTE

 

 

 

 

Always hang the fibers on the

 

fiber holder so that they do not

 

affect the weight. In this case

Polishing unit polishing may not

be done

 

correctly because the

adaquate

 

polishing pressure is not applied

 

to the holding jig.
